Course Description

This course investigates social and environmental collapse and sustainability in the past and future. Archaeological documentation of human-environmental interactions over centuries provides insights into conditions contributing to the collapse, sustainability, resilience, and vulnerability of socioecological systems. We investigate the outcomes of these interactions as a source of insights for the future.
